Sasha's POV:

Bayard, "There is only one way across" I get off him and I say to myself, "Lost my "muchness" haven't I?" I am able to use their faces as stepping stones and I make it across.

I find a mouse hole that I can crawl into the castle but first I yell, "Ruby! The hat!" I point up and she picks up the hat,she twirls and releases it into the air where it flies above the castle walls and I crawl through the little space.

I watch as the Red Queen and her subjects play a game of what looks like croquet and after she swings a hedgehog with a flamingo,she yells, "Where's my ball? Page!"

I run towards the hedgehog and I am trying to help him but he is squirming way too much, "Ssh. I'm trying to help you." He stops and runs away when he notices McTwisp running through the bushes.

He gives me a look, "Well,if it isn't the wrong 'Sasha?' What brings you here,hmm?" I tell him, "I've come to rescue Jefferson" he remarks, "Well,you are not rescuing anyone being the size of a gerbil."

I ask him, "Do you happen to have anything that can make me grow?" He is taken back, "Upelkuchen?" He thinks for a moment, "Actually,I think I might have some left."

He gives some to me and I ate it, "Not all of it!" I drop it and I immediately grow to the size of a giant, "No,no! Stop! Don't do that!" The Red Queen and her subjects approach, "Page!"

Thank god the trees and the bushes cover me because I outgrew the tiny dress that Jefferson made for me. Cora looks at me, "And what is this?"

McTwisp, "It's a "who," your Majesty. This is, "Um." He tries to think of a name for me but he can't,but it gives me an idea. Cora, "Um?" I say, "From 'Umbrage."

She asks me, "What happened to your clothes?" I made up a story, "I outgrew them. I've been growing an awful lot lately. I tower over everyone in Umbrage. They laugh at me. So I've come to you,hoping that you might understand what it's like."

She smiles, "My dear girl,anyone with a head that large is welcome in my court. Someone find her some clothes,use the curtains if you must but clothe this enormous girl." I give her a convincing smile at the fact that she just bought my fake story.
